About this part

Product Details

If you're working on the engine of your 2008-2015 Mitsubishi Lancer, this Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) cylinder head gasket from Cometic is a solid choice for sealing the combustion chamber. It's specifically designed for the 1FZ-FE engine with a 101.5mm bore and a thickness of .030 inches, which is a common size when rebuilding or refreshing an engine.

This gasket is built with multiple layers of stainless steel, giving it increased strength and the ability to rebound, which helps it resist corrosion. The outer layers are coated with Viton, a heat-resistant rubber material that can handle high temperatures up to 482°F (250°C). This construction means the gasket can handle the demands of high-output engines and doesn't require any additional sealants, making installation more straightforward. MLS gaskets are well-suited for applications where aluminum heads meet cast iron blocks, as they can manage the shearing forces that can occur between different metals.

This gasket is also listed as fitting certain Lexus LX450 and Toyota Land Cruiser models from the mid-90s, so be sure to check the fitment details for your specific vehicle. When installing, always refer to the manufacturer's instructions to ensure proper torque and procedure.
